Sinopsis

Excerpt from Elementary Physical Geography

It is hoped that the more advanced teachers will find it possible to accompany the text-book work with laboratory and field study, along the line suggested in the appendix. The discussion of method has been systematically eliminated from the text, and the sole effort has been to present facts and furnish information; but if this alone is put before the pupils, the value of the study will be very slight indeed. It furnishes the main story in a connected way, and supplies certain information but the laboratory and field will supply applications and extensions of the principles, at the same time giving value to the study as a means of mental disci pline. Merely to hear recitations from the book, will be the continuation of an all too prevalent habit, which in so many cases makes the science teaching in our secondary schools the weakest part of the curriculum.
